Motor Vehicle Accidents

No one expects to be in a motor vehicle accident, but they happen every day. In fact, motor vehicle collisions are a leading cause of personal injury and wrongful death in this country. A car crash can change your life in an instant. Regardless of the type of motor vehicle accident, we can help. You deserve a lawyer that has been fighting the insurance companies for over 60 years in car, truck and commercial vehicle accident cases.

Defective Product Lawsuits

When products on the market cause harm to the consumers who purchased them—whether through defects in design and manufacturing or due to a “failure to warn” about certain dangerous features—we can often hold the designers, producers and sellers responsible. If you’ve been injured by a defective product, we can help.

Workers' Compensation Lawsuits

If you’ve been injured on the job, you are most likely eligible for workers’ compensation. Your employer may not tell you this, but if you take specific steps, you are entitled to compensation for your lost wages, hospital bills and disability. Because of time constraints, it is crucial to contact an experienced workers’ compensation attorney as soon as possible to discuss your legal rights.

Dangerous Drug Lawsuits

While we often think of illegal drugs as dangerous, we trust that the prescription drugs prescribed by our doctors are safe and useful. Unfortunately, this is often not the case, and the unexpected effects of dangerous prescription drugs can be devastating. Our firm is experienced in filing claims against drug companies, and we can investigate your claim to determine whether you are entitled to compensation.

Medical Malpractice Lawsuits

We trust medical professionals, but when they negligently stray from standard and proper methods of treatment, people can suffer serious consequences. If you’ve been injured due to a healthcare professional’s negligent or reckless conduct, it’s critical to find an attorney with experience in medical malpractice cases as soon as possible.

Railroad Injuries

Railway workers risk injury on the job every day. Fortunately, the Federal Employer’ Liability Act (FELA) was passed to protect these men and women while on the job. If you’ve been injured working on a railroad, it is crucial that you take certain steps including reporting your injury and contacting an experienced personal injury lawyer immediately.

Mesothelioma & Asbestos Lawsuits

Mesothelioma is a rare form of fatal lung cancer caused by inhalation of asbestos, a type of mineral historically used in the building, construction and automotive industries. Those diagnosed with mesothelioma were typically exposed to asbestos on the job many years before their diagnosis. If you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, we can help.
